Reviews
'Political Turmoil is remarkable for its engagement with multiple discourses. Its thoughtfully arranged chapters ... are uniformly well-written, occasionally revelatory, and very much in conversation across the volume. This book will prove accessible to advanced undergraduates, yet useful to both generalists and experts in early modern literature. It should be on the shelves of every academic library and considered for any graduate or advanced undergraduate course in early modern literature.' Wendy Furman-Adams, Modern Philology
